# Instructions:

Put a big frying pan on medium-high heat. Warm up the olive oil and half the butter until it’s ready.

Cut the chicken breasts lengthwise to make four thinner pieces. Sprinkle both sides with salt and pepper, then dust evenly with flour.

Place the coated chicken in the hot pan. Cook each side for 4 to 5 minutes until crispy and golden. Then, take it out and set it aside.

Turn the heat to medium-low and melt the rest of the butter. Toss in the garlic slices and let them cook for about 30-60 seconds until you can smell the garlic aroma.

Deglaze the pan by adding the soy sauce and rice vinegar. Scrape up those browned pan bits. Mix in the honey, then season with pepper and a bit more salt. Simmer for 4-5 minutes until it thickens.

Return the chicken to the pan and let it soak in the sauce for about a minute. Serve it up with the green onion garnish.
